Aladdin

It is said high in the mountains of Peking a magic lamp lies hidden; within this lamp is a magical Genie!

The evil Abanazer wants to get his hands on this lamp so he can rule the world. The only problem is he needs a local to guide him to the cave.

Young Aladdin lives in Peking with his mother and brother who run the local laundrette. He is in a secret relationship with the Emperor Of China’s daugher: a relationship that has strictly been forbidden.

Will Abanazer succeed with his evil plan? Will Aladdin be accepted by the Emperor?

This show is packed full of laughs, magical beings, song and dance, great fun for all the family!
